Planning a Campfire Fiesta

Planning a Campfire FiestaFrom YumSugar

When my friends and I go camping, the food planning comes first. Once we’ve figured out who’s making every appetizer, cocktail, main dish and dessert, we focus on other details like who’s bringing bug spray and how to get where we’re going.

My campfire fiesta won’t exactly have decor. After all, hanging streamers and piñatas from the trees is a guaranteed way to get heckled by adjacent campers. But I will be needing provisions and gear — everything from aluminum foil for cooking the marshmallow cream puffs to a cute tablecloth to cover the picnic table.

I’ve chosen floral oilcloth that’s both easy to clean and in keeping with the Mexican-themed meal. I’ll also bring some reusable plates and utensils, a portable kitchen sink for washing dishes, and cute citronella candles to keep the bugs away. If you camp with portable iPod speakers, you might want to bring along some glow sticks too, in case a dance party breaks out around the fire ring. Check out my cute and functional finds below.
